From the authoring and updating side,
complete IETM systems allow information
authors to improve control of content
and to distribute changes and updates
quickly.

A paperless, interactive
environment of contextual information
can drive faster and more accurate
responses throughout your process.

We can repurpose your existing legacy data, develop new elements
and integrate everything into a flexible 'information on demand'
system responsive to your environment's requirements.

DTB Technical Services Division can
develop IETMs to any standards and
requirements. Contact us with your
project information to see how we can
help.

DTB's extensive capabilities, combining complete
technical publications with our engineering and testing facilites
are represented on our main website. See more about
IETM Development at DTB.com.

Elements of Interactive Information Systems

Technical Writing Services - Interactive data
delivery starts with information and so do we. DTB can
review your
existing files and provide fresh insight into how they
may be re-used, updated and converted. Dayton T. Brown
routinely authors new information as well, studying and
understanding your projects and requirements to provide
a structured data system that grows with your needs.

STRUCTURED DATA DEVELOPMENT — Data authored to
today's standards is adaptable, and can be used and
reused at any point downstream. XML and SGML often
provide the framework for the flexible utilization of
information, connecting your resources to the most
advantageous point of use. DTB's teams specialize
in these and many other structured data formats, authoring to all required standards, such as
S1000D,
MIL standards and more.

TECHNICAL ILLUSTRATION SERVICES — Our graphic and
illustration services range from the conversion of
legacy graphic file types to the development of
'intelligent graphics' that enhance the use and users'
connectivity with the flow of information. We can start
from scratch, creating new drawings of your parts and
processes or re-purpose your existing computer graphic
files for reuse in new systems.

COMPLETE INTERACTIVE INFORMATION SYSTEMS —
Intelligently designed interactive information systems,
including IETMs, can deliver information throughout the
entire range of process at new speeds. Updates can be
instantaneous across your entire system. Users can
activate pinpoint delivery of precisely the information
they require. Finally, your data, broadcast through a
system responsive to your requirements, will be
supporting your entire range of activity.

DTB Technical Services Division has provided a wide
range of documentation products, analysis and support
services to the military, government and commercial
industries since 1966. We have a long record of
evolution with changing technologies and often lead the
way in the development and acceptance of emerging
standards.
DTB can provide alternatives and insight into the new
opportunities evolving technologies present.

Classes of IETMs

A functionality matrix is used
as a checklist of which features
are required for an checklist more precisely defines
what functionality an IETM has,
and allows clearer communication
between an IETM developer and
the IETM customer. Classes and
levels of IETMS are no longer
regarded as acceptable
descriptors of IETMs.

The IETM functionality matrix
was first developed by the US
Aerospace Industries Association
(AIA) Product Support Committee.
It is used in most US military
technical data specifications as
well as S1000D, the
international IETM standard.

DTB-InfoPros.com is the website of the
Technical Services Division of Dayton T. Brown, Inc. Since the 1950s, Dayton T. Brown has provided
technical publications and logistical
services to military, commercial, industrial and
governmental clients around the world. Our products include development
and deployment of information systems, parts catalogs, operator
and maintenance manuals. We author all components of
IETMs Types 1 and 2,
utilizing intelligent graphics, XML, SGML and common source
database integration. We author to standards including
S1000D,
ATA 100, MIL 1388 and many more.
